Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot: Audiobook:

C.F. Keary’s collection of stories and sketches, ’Twixt Dog and Wolf (1901), is one of the rarest and most sought-after volumes in the annals of weird fiction. Collected here are ‘The Message from the God’, a decadent paean to the Great God Pan; ‘Elizabeth’, a tale of witchcraft in medieval Germany that John Buchan called ‘one of the finest witch tales I know’; ‘The Four Students’, a story of black magic and alchemy in the bloody days of the French Reign of Terror; and a series of ten ‘Phantasies’, bizarre and hallucinatory nightmares in prose. This first-ever reissue includes the unabridged text of the original edition, plus a new introduction and notes by James Machin.
